Probably seen it's reflection and thought it was a rival. Growing up, the house we lived in had two big picture widows across from each other, birds would try to fly through and kamikaze in the glass.

Need a tiller for the JD 110 you have Doug (hint hint). Just get on, start the tiller, and drive.

Like being a farmer, start out a millionaire and work yourself broke.

Did you get up to the Pocono Old Tyme show in Gilbert this weekend Bill? I didn't get a chance, was helping my uncle with wood.

Looks like it's got good "bones", just depends on your vision for it, and how much money you want to throw at it.

The one reason I don't use the 60" deck on my 420, it's a royal PITA to install/remove.

Do you have another picture of the three wheeled one next to the lifted G?

It's been a couple years since we disassembled my uncles 314, but I think that bar is factory, your pic brings up vague memories. That linear actuator is a bit of a bear, weight wise and accessibility wise.

Allis called that Shuttle Shift. They had Hydro, Shuttle Shift, and regular gear drive.

Hydro or shuttle shift? My uncle HAD a 314 hydro, till he blew the diff in it trying to pull a big pine log with it. Told him he should have waited till I came up and got my JD 420 out, have it setup as a mini skidder/forklift on the rear.

Didn't get a look at the VIN, but I did see the 426 under the hood and it had the badges on it. I think it was around July. When I lived out that way I use to see all the shows I could, Chevy, Ford, Mopar, Corvettes, etc. A car guys dream in that area.

426 under the hood, a true "Superbird", right down to the horn. He "beep beeped" when I nodded at him as he left. Made me wish my dad never wrecked his 68 Road Runner, was candy apple red with a 383.

Wish I had a cell phone or camera about 12 years ago. I was outside of Carlisle PA at a gas station and a guy pulled in with a canary yellow superbird, complete with nose and wing. You could FEEL the rumble when he fired it up.

Been awhile since I seen a engine that you can almost sit next to and work on.

That would probably climb a wall now.
